Have you ever wondered why Derrick's blood pressure is so high? This classic exchange may help shed some light on why he has a hard time keeping calm. It features Derrick moderating a discussion with Tedakin and Legend668 on what should have been the simple subject of whether or not Twisted Metal was an awe inspiring press conference reveal for Sony. (spoiler: It wasnt).

The episode opens with Supergirl flying over the city in a shot so nice it almost makes up for some of the extra wire-y flying scenes in the past. The tranquil moment is interrupted when Supergirl hears a couple of cars battling in a road rage duel. I would think that traffic skirmishes aren’t really the most effective way to use super powers, but it seems every episode has her being a glorified traffic cop.
Two guys are banging their cars together like extras in a Mad Max movie as they drive down the street while yelling PG approved near obscenities...

Another week, and another ugly bubbly face is on my screen. One thing humans have over aliens, superior skin care products. The alien is being escorted down the hallways of the DEO in chains that look like they were designed to be broken out of. Oh look, the chains were just broken out of. Luckily Supergirl is there to the beat down on the prisoner before too much mayhem happens. During the brawl her sister calls to complain that Supergirl is late to something. I’m guessing Supergirl is wearing a bluetooth headset, since she answers the phone by touching her...

The episode begins where the previous one ended, with Supergirl being interviewed in the middle of the night by Cat Grant aka Prada. Supergirl is hovering about 10 feet in the air above Cat, forcing her to look up to Supergirl. This is one of those ‘superiority' tricks you’re taught in executive school. You know how when you’re in a meeting, the boss’s chair is set a few inches higher than everyone elses?. It’s what someone does when they’re trying to hide an inferiority complex. Hmm, we’re about 20 seconds in and I think I’ve discovered the theme for this...

The episode opens with Supergirl flying through the air telling the viewer that this isnt ‘His’ story. It’s hers, just in case you misread the title of the show. The flying effect looks pretty good, even if it does seem like she’s always traveling in a large circle.
She’s being put through some tests as the Gruff but Lovable guy from the first episode lobs missiles at her. He assures her that these tests aren't ‘just because you’re a woman’. So we’re 1:40 in and we already have 2 instances of reminding everyone that girls are awesome. I can see where...

With the new console launches comes the return of a phenomenon known as 'fanboyism'. It's where a gamer makes a decision on which system to buy, and then justifies the choice by vehemently trashing the alternative console. To a fanboy, it's much more important to find faults with the 'opposition' rather than find positive points for their chosen platform. DPL sees this as a huge opportunity to please everyone, and to also anger everyone. So in two special episodes, Dead Pixel Live becomes a fanboy for both sides. In Episode 785, we go deep into why the PS4 should have...
